Plus Melksham who missed most of last year. Fritsch who hasn't been able to play there consistently. AVB if he ever gets back on the park. Hannan after missing over a year.  Mind you none of them are KPF's. 

I'm pretty sure Richmond won a flag with just one KPF

    Why are people saying he won’t play in Round 2?

    The idea appears to be that he won’t be quite ready for the restart but without a VFL competition, that means another week or two of training. 

     I wonder however, if he continues to impress at training and the AFL allows two extra interchange players, whether he might be given a limited run against Carlton.

    Gee it will tempt the selectors if he continues to "Dazzle" on the track and has no other setbacks ,but the AFL Decision to stick to four interchanges might scarper the inclination to play him first up!

    The responsibility that comes with having a first child is life changing and in my opinion is the primary driver behind HB getting his [censored] together. 
     

    Not a bad journey back from blowing coke, public drunkenness and blueing.

    Quite refreshing to see someone turn their life around and get serious about things. Hope it continues and he can carve out 100 magnificent games for the Dees!

    Hoping his dedication to getting serious about his football rubs off on a lot of the playing group.

    Your forgetting he had two other blokes who weren't in Richmond jumpers playing there as well which were hard to man up...

    I'm in the wait a while camp at this stage, only because of what HB will face if our forward line is not a cohesive unit that can create space, which he will need, and i would like to see initially if we are anywhere near there in the first half a dozen games.

    Apparently, the extra interchange isn’t going to happen.

    You must have a decent Thesaurus.   Mine is not only terrible, it's terrible.

    What's another word for thesaurus?

    Round 2 seems a bit early, during pre-season they were always aiming for mid-way through the season. 

    Round 2 will be midway through a normal season.

    Yep, that was my hilarious joke. 

    FWIW, I think he’ll play round two.

    Nope, they don't cut it. And many of them you may have noticed are more than 1 word.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
